Correctly withholding U.S. income tax and dealing with employment tax issues for your company's foreign nationals working in the United States may be more complex than you think.

Failing to properly withhold may create tax liabilities for taxpayers and the company, and complying with employment tax rules can be tricky.During this webcast, Grant Thornton's Global Mobility Services team will explain the rules and regulations in these areas, and share real-life examples so that you can properly identify the issues. Topics will include:
- U.S. income tax withholding issues related to assignment length
- U.S. tax treaties and agreements
- Proper treatment of fringe benefits
Learning objectives:
- Identify the rules and regulations related to income tax withholding for foreign nationals
- Explain how to correctly apply the withholding rules based on the immigration status of the employee
